Abstract:Based on the exact self-similar fractal Sierpinski carpet model,it has been studied that the function-al relationship of average tortuosity and porosity,and the functional relationship average tortuosity and mini-mum pore characteristic length and the fractal dimension by solving the distribution function of tortuosity of the control body.The results showed the tortuosity and porosity calculation obey the rule ofΓn =32 -12 φ;the minimum pore characteristic length,the fractal dimension and Euclidean space dimension determine the com-plexity of the internal space of object;the tortuosity of porous media flow lines decreases with the increasing of the internal porosity and increases with the decreasing of the smallest pores characteristic length and pore frac-tal dimension.
